So winning the East and being proud of accomplishing that feat and getting to the SEC Championship isn't a big deal.


I thought I was pretty clear. To some schools it's a very big deal. Heck, after our terrible season last year it would be a great thing but nothing to celebrate usually. The SECCG game trophy is all that matters in the end. That probably doesn't apply to everyone. I know it doesn't for me in most years. This year, hell yeah. I'll go all Mizzou fan on everyone if we make it and don't win. That would be an outlier though.

Well considering the competition in some games is a play or two, YES, a little luck along with a more favorable schedule, sometimes laughable easy schedule gives you the edge you need to win. If you don't know that by now in the SEC you have had your head in the sand!!!

No. That certainly plays a part.....but it is not ALL about luck. If it were, Vandy and Kentucky would have their share of titles, and Tennessee would not be down as long as they have been.

Well I don't know for a fact, being that no games have been played, but I am expecting a season where he finishes in the top 5 in almost every catagory for SEC QB's (including rushing).

Dude just has the IT factor that every team wants under center (or 5-6 yards behind)

When was the last time the east ended up with 2 top 5 teams? Last year seemed like an unusually strong year for the east.

Ill just leave this here; I was always curious about this when people kept trotting it out as a reasoning for Mizzou having a good year so I did some research. Sorry the facts dont line up with your bullshite.


quote:

2010 SEC East and its one ranked team, #22, winning the division says "hello"

Dont let that stop this bull shite narrative. East had #4,#5 and #24 ranked teams.

Lets look at the facts:

SEC East ranked teams per year:

1992: 8,10,12
1993: 5,12
1994: 7,22
1995: 2,3
1996: 1,9
1997: 4,10,7
1998: 1,5,14
1999: 12,9,16
2000: 10,19,20
2001: 4,3,13,22
2002: 3
2003: 7,15,24
2004: 13,7
2005: 10,12
2006: 1,25,23
2007: 2,12,13
2008: 1,13
2009: 3
2010: 22
2011: 9,19
2012: 5,9,8,23
2013: 5,4,24



Thats right,you are reading that correctly. Its only the 2nd time in 12 years the East has had two top 5 teams and only the 4th time in history.

Wrong. They have all the right in the world to be cocky. They should be the cockiest team in the conference. People would not shut up about how bad a fit they were and how awful they would be in the SEC. They caught so much shite. Then they went out and won the east in their SECOND year in the conference. After enduring an injury plagued 2012 and relentless offseason. frick, MIZ should run their mouths all day long on here. They deserve it.




Actually....I see your point and tend to agree with it.

Give me a break, go frick yourself. I'm sorry we have confidence in our team and aren't just gonna lay down before the season has just begun.

Injury excuses are lame they happen to everyone. Did you forget we lost our QB for 5 games and our best corner for a few as well?



yea injury is a great excuse for your team but never anyone else, we also lost a starting guard for 2 games, a DB for the season and had RB's and other players out in various games. We had better depth and better coaching from the OC.

was gonna say "weird topic" but since it's the rant, nothing is out of place here.

They have earned the right to be a little confident unlike another new addition to the SEC.

We won the east and finished ranked 5th, an eyelash away from 4th, which was another east team.

The teams that are telling us we have no right shite all over themselves.

STFU and GTFO

Dude, it was 100+ at kickoff for two of our games in CoMo last year with humidity to match.

Day game in Athens, check.

Heat will be the least of our boys concern for the showdown in Columbia East.

A&M will win the West before LSU, although they won't win it for probably 3 or 4 years. And to take it one further, they will finish higher than LSU in the West on a regular basis if they keep on pulling in classes like they have been


two years in and two years owned.....with the single most dynamic player during that time. Yet, they are assured of dominance.

I deal with facts. You deal with fantasy.


On Topic: Mizzou has every reason to be cocky. Not a fan, but they had an insanely impressive turn around that I don't think is a fluke.

Mizzou would have finished 4th in the West at the best.

4th in the west would have left us unranked and even shittier than LSU. Didn't happen. I would like some of what you are smoking though
